Talking Tokyo - Times Are Changing Lyrics

Sometimes I forget about
The world these walls are shutting out
How the canopy that I can see
Is resting on the trunks of trees
Rooted in the ground that people walk on
People like you and me
There's a river right behind those trees
That's running straight into the sea
I can picture it with clarity
Fish it right out of my memory
But I can't possibly remember yesterday
And it's lasted twenty years
I feel so much better
When times are changing
Times are changing
I feel so much better
When times are changing
Times are changing
You said you'd make me big again
Tall as a mountain I would stand
And I know that a white man's word
Is the biggest lie I've ever heard
But I put my trust in a specimen so rare
He could be the first
You've managed to break time in two
There's a before and after you
Your pride will get us all in trouble
But anything that pops the bubble
Is worth a predicament or two
I feel so much better
When times are changing
Times are changing
I feel so much better
When times are changing
Times are changing
I feel so much better
When times are changing
Times are changing
I feel so much better
When times are changing
When times are changing
